Morning all
Approx a week ago I purchased a new FM/AM play everything CD (incl MP3) to install in the Troopy to upgrade the OEM FM/AM Cassette player. (Still working ok)
Anyway to day I decide to go back to same store and purchase two extra speakers.
Weeeeell! on entering the
shop the guy who sold it to me spots me coming and a look comes over his face that says ‘Oh! S H I T, this coota is gonna ask me a question’.
And I do, “do you have/sell external mount speakers for these vehicle systems.
Response – vacant stare into space and dead silence, then a tentative “um! No, don’t think so”.
Well how about a small computer type speaker then . Ans: “dunno, try over there in the house sound system area”
This dude follows me and when I point out a nice little wall mount speaker with a price tag nearby of $2,999 on it, and ask him how much for the pair; he points to the $2,999 and says “that’s how much”
Nearly faint with shock, however another dude sails over with a look on his face that says, Mate! I’ll give you an answer. Whether its genuine of bulls h i t, I’ll definitely give you an answer.
How much for those speakers I repeat.
He says “ not much, however they come in the full surround system sound kit for $2,999 and I can’t break the kit.
Well! What to do. Called into JAYCAR on the way home which I should have gone to in the first place.
$45 later, a perfect set of 38mm dia speakers, with ext mounts for the hi-fi system, and the salesman was a real know your product, Mr service type of guy.
Plus speaker wire at 0.45c a metre, compared with the other place at $1.00 per m for exactly the same stuff
